News Headlines on front page spacing

Hello @alm367!

Insert the code below, in Customize->General->Additional CSS:

.entry-title a{
    letter-spacing: 0px;
}

Regards

Could not find that… found Customize>Styling>custom CSS

placed it in there but that did not work

You have an old version of the theme…, please update your theme first, then try again.

this code should work:

.entry-title a{
    letter-spacing: 0px;
}

Regards

I updated the theme but now I cannot find the “additional CSS” section. It is not listed under Customize > General

Hi,

As I can see you still use an old version of the theme (1.2.8.10)
newest is 1.3.2

Placing the code in Customize>Styling>custom CSS will work too.

I updated a stage site, so not a site that is accessible to anyone but myself. I did not want to make any permanent changes to the site (i.e. an update) without testing it out first.

Placing the code in Customize>Styling>custom CSS does not work, at least it did not work with the old version.

Hi,

I checked your site again and found that you have entered the code correctly, and the code works (or maybe I didn’t understand you correctly).

You can change the letter-spacing value to ” – ” value if you need it.

Alright, I updated WordPress, updated the theme and now am I able to see the “additional CSS” but when I place the above code it does nothing. Please view image: https://tinypic.com/r/2dvtuac/9

Try to change the above code with the following, and check again.

.entry-title a{
    letter-spacing: -2px;
}

this is the code for the Title.

I think I may not have been clear on what I need to change on the site. The news headlines are spaced too far apart.

If you go to bdl.pitt.edu, on the front page I list “news” – there is too much space between each news, denoted below as [TOO MUCH SPACE]

Abstracts accepted for ESSKA 2018
We have 2 posters accepted to the 2018 meeting of the European Society for Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy.

Sorry, I did not understood you before…

I think next CSS codes will do work for you:

body:not(.single-post) .article-wrapper {
    margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.site-content article p{
    margin-bottom:0px!important;
}
footer.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}
.site-content article .article-entry-wrapper {
    padding-bottom: 10px;
}

Change the margin-bottom and padding-bottom values per your needs.

Regards

Thank you! That worked
